hi all have posted this recipe here as it's really nice and s/w friendly the new healthy & filling plan where u don't have to count points is very similar to s/w the only difference as far as i can see is that you can have crumpets,calorie controlled bread, w/w bagels, wraps & w/w petit pains without having to count them and fruit in juice is free
. going to make another recipe with lamb tomorrow will put it here if its any good, hope ur all having a great weekend xx

Oh I'm glad you're getting the hang of WW. I had heard that the new plan was very similar to EE. Please do keep in touch won't you?
The tattoo's just gorgeous lol! It has finally started to go a bit flakey but apparently that's normal and just the top layer of skin peeling? Don't have any scabs or anything, and I put cream on 4 or 5 times a day, and any other times I remember lol!
I'm hoping to get it extended in a couple of weeks(after pay day!) so it goes further down my back by two flowers, and possibly upwards by one. And I still want to have a little red Welsh dragon somewhere about my person!

well lost 3.5lbs so very happy with that i think the shake up done me some good, i was shocked when i got on the scales as i really didn't feel any different this week. i was good on the food front ate normally all day but did find it hard, so used to going without most of the day but it was good not to feel hungry and wore exactly the same clothes as last week so will follow the same pattern each week now it's set. hope everyone else is having a good week xx
